However I don't have a clue about how I can get the mac address of a

Use NetworkInterface.getHardwareAddress() for each of the interfaces
returned by NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces().

Note that a host often has multiple network interfaces and
correspondingly many MAC addresses. It's up to you to decide which is
"the" MAC address.
